KINDER MOUNTAIN RESCUE TEAM

 

Saving lives in wild and remote places since 1971

Please Support Us

Kinder Mountain Rescue Team (KMRT) has been in existence since 1971, and is one of seven mountain rescue teams that operate within the Peak District National Park, as part of the Peak District Mountain Rescue Organisation (PDMRO).

Our 50 members operate on an purely voluntary basis and are on call 24 hours a day, 365 days a year to assist members of the public on the hill or in urban search and rescue situations.

We are almost exclusively funded by public donations, and all proceeds from fund raising go towards equipment and resources used on our call outs.

57: Callout – 09 October 2024

Providing Casualty Care

A young adult man sustained an ankle injury whilst walking along the western edge path of Kinder Scout with his friend and dog.

We were able to locate him using What3Words and Sarcall PhoneFind. We treated him for his ankle injury. Both casualties were suffering from the cold. We evacuated the injured casualty on a stretcher to our vehicles at Edale Cross. We then drove him, along with his friend and dog to the safety of our base in Hayfield.

Kinder Mountain Rescue Team is staffed by volunteers who give their time free of charge and is funded entirely by public donations.
